[1.B - Legal/Safety Crap]
Now for the precautionary stuff...
I'm not responsible for any damage caused to yourself, others, property, etc. This information is provide for entertainment purposes and should be exploited whenever possible.
I'm also not responsible for any straining of the eyes due to my horrible spelling and/or grammar.
You've been warned... so don't do anything too stupid.
Now on with the show.
-----
[1.C - My Background]
My name is Matt, but I'm known as LOKI and am a part of the Sacramento area DDR group called the Sacramentals. I'm been making edits for about a year now. I can truly say that they have made me a better player. They helped me excel in singles, then move onto doubles and finally cata's. Today, I own 5 memory cards packed full of edits I play, most of which are crazy edits...but that's what I'm known for. Anyway, enjoy the FAQ. I put lots of work into it, and will try to keep it pretty current as things are discovered.
All right let's get this party started...
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | SECTION 2 - THE BASICS | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+
[2.A - Why Edit?]
Do you ever find DDR getting too hard or too easy? Ever want to create your own dance steps? Or practice certain step patterns?
Edits can help you do this. They can reinvent the dancing game all over again because there is an endless possibility for challenges and fun. (God that sounds corny.)
-----
[2.B - Why Edit Hack?]
Why not? Edit hacking can be fun for a ton of reasons:
1. You can make edits for songs that aren't on home versions and likely never will be (Korean, petit love, etc.)
2. You can make edit without the home versions.
3. You can make edits with freezes without owning DDRMAX
4. You can make freezes in old songs not on DDRMAX
5. You can do other fun things (I will outline this later)
-----
[2.C - What you need to get started.]
YOU NEED:
- A PC (duh...)
- A dexdrive or equivalent device (I personally use a PSXchanger, it's a playstation, N64, and gameboy memory card manager all in one. Bought it at GAMESTOP.COM)
- A hex editor. I recommend FRHED v1.566. Get it at: http://www.blueneptune.com/~zio/DDR/hack-diy/frhed156.zip
- At least 1 OFFICIAL SONY PS1 Memory card. NOT THIRD PARTY, PLEASE!
THINGS I RECOMMEND YOU HAVE:
- A playstation with DDR home versions
- DDREDITMAX ( http://oaxsoft.virtualave.net/ )
- A program to convert Card Captor Sakura files (*.mc) to Dexdrive format (*.gme) or whatever format your device reads. These sites have two nice looking ones, and in English, too! PSXGameEdit: http://moberg-dybdal.dk/psxge/ PSXMemTool: http://psxmemtool.ngemu.com
- Step Charts for the songs your editing
- WINACE archiver (for uncompressing thee *.lhz files)
-----
[2.D - The Setup]
- Install and connect your DexDrive or equivalent device to your PC
- Download and install all software (hex editor, DDREDITMAX, file converter)
- If you have trouble getting DDREDITMAAX to run see the installation information later on in this FAQ.
+-----------------------+ |THE DDR EDIT FORMAT *3*| +-----------------------+
Ok before we get started you should have a basic understanding of how edits work.
-----
[3.A - Basic Edit Terminology]
Ok here's where stuff get technical. For the rest of this FAQ you'll see me refer to a few key terms. Here are some basic terms to familiarize yourself with:
MDAT: This tag denotes the song's length in bars. Or at least, it is supposed to... there are noted exceptions, but we'll get into that later.
BARS(Measures): A total of 16 possible steps (16 - 16th beats, or 4 - quarter beats)
SONG ID: Just like it sounds a value given to a song in DDR in place of the title.
FREEZE ARROWS: Introduced in DDRMAX, these arrows must be held for the duration of the freeze.
ARROW FREEZES: Not to be confused with freeze arrows, this is where the song's arrows stop for a moment then resume (so fabulous so fierce, abyss, etc.)
-----
[3.B The Data Decoded and Dissected]
We'll start off by looking at one of my edits, DYOXIDE in *.MC format. Keep in mind that this is the .mc format. Each format varies in its layout. So if you use something like a .gme file or what have you, you're not going to match up with this layout.
This is the standard playstation save format used in Japan and most of the edit data out there is in this format. It really doesn't matter what format you edit in because they're all about the same except for the addresses being a little different due to different stuff added to the beginning of the file (this is called header data). But mainly once you learn to edit the *.mc format you'll be able to make out all the other formats easy.
Anyway, the first thing I did for my hex editor was change the window properties to display either 8 or 16 bytes per line (the default is often something else... on mine it is 15 per line for god knows what reason) I will be using 16 for my explanations. In Frhed just go to options - view settings and change the bytes to 16 per line and uncheck the box below it so it uses your settings.
OK here a hex dump of DYOXIDE. To the right of the hex value is the ASCII display and to the left is the starting address for each line. If you've never worked in hex before, the addresses progress in hex format, 0-9 then A-F. So if I wanted to edit the second line from the top and 11 spaces to the right the Hex address for that byte would be 001B. It will become easier the more you work with it. Anyway, moving along... Check out the file below.

Ok we'll begin from the top.
Starting at
0000-007F: Memory card header area, which contains the product code and the name of your edit. DDRMAX USA saves the product code as "BASLUS-01446". By following the instructions above, this code changes to "BISLPM-86252", which denotes the home version of Japanese DDR 4th Mix. It does not matter if the song you're editing is actually available in 4th Mix (or earlier) or not. Immediately following the product code is an 8-byte string which is the name of your edit.
0080-00BF: File Comments area. This is apparently the area that both PSXGameEdit (and other memcard utilities) and the PS2 look at to get displayable title and game information. The instructions above replace most of this area with plain text, whereas DDRMAX USA (and all other versions of DDR, apparently) save this area in some form of machine-readable code. I don't know why replacing it with plain text (which the PS2 doesn't recognize, apparently) causes the arcade game to read the edit, but it does.
00C0-028F: PSX Icon animation data. Modify if you want, using an editing utility such as the one provided by PSXGameEdit. The above instructions replace this area with the animated icon for DDREditMAX. It should not matter what the icon is, however.
0290-02AF: This is what I'd like to call the "--DanceDanceRevolution--" lines. (why gee, I wonder...) It marks the start of the actual edit data file.
02B0-02B1: This is what I call the "Arcade Machine Code". This line apparently lets the DDR machine know what mix the song is from. I really actually don't know what it means. I just know you have to have a proper code for the edit to work. Here's the list of the machine codes that are most relevant.
DDR EXTREME: 93E9 DDRMAX2: 8EC1 DDRMAX: C23F DDR 5th Mix: 3746 DDR 4th+, Solo bass, Solo2000: B123 DDR 4th: DD4D DDR 3rd, 2nd, and 1st: 0000
02C0-02C1, 0300-0301: Both values are the MDAT value for the edit.
The values = # of BARS * 16 converted into hex, then the byte pairs are reversed (because of the Intel-style byte format) so for this edit it would be like this if we worked it backwards to find out how many bars are in this edit: 1004 = 0410, converted to decimal format = 1040. 1040 / 16 = 65. So there are 65 bars in this song. Pretty straightforward.
02C4-02C5, 0308-0309: Song ID value, bytes also flipped
So this song's ID would be 00EE, but is displayed as EE00. There's a list of these values near the end of this FAQ (APPEND A).
02C6,0304 These two are the Game play Type value. It denotes what type of an edit this is. Here's the set values:
Single: 00 Couple: 01 Double: 02 6-Panel (SOLO): 03
0305-0306: Whatever these are, they are always 0301. I don't know what they are but your edit won't work if you change them to anything else.
02C7,030A: These are the Difficulty and Class type. The first value is equal to the difficulty class (0 - no class, 1 basic/light, 2 - trick/standard, 3 - maniac/heavy). The second value is the actual difficulty in feet (0-9). Modify if desired - DDRMAX USA saves this as 00 (No class). DDRMAX2 (arcade) ignores this value completely.
030B: Freeze Arrow Flag. For DDRMAX1 and above, this byte denotes whether the edit uses Freeze Arrows. If it does, the arcade machine will read a separate section of the edit file for freeze information. More on that later. Presumably, this byte and the freeze data section are completely ignored by DDRMAX(ARCADE) and below...
0310-070F: This is the actual step data. Obviously the ending value will be different depending on how long your song is that your making an edit for. Each row represents 1 full bar with 16 places for steps to be added. Here's what all that data translates to.
There's a few thing you should know about how the edit data is set up. For one it sort of backwards thanks once again to Intel. Meaning if I have a value of 48 it translates to UP on the Player 2 side (RIGHT STAGE) & Right on the Player 1 side (LEFT STAGE). For the rest of the data translations see the chart below.
Data is displayed like so (PLAYER 2 SIDE, PLAYER 1 SIDE)
STEP DATA CHART: 0-No step 1-LEFT 2-DOWN 3-DOWN AND LEFT 4-UP 5-UP AND LEFT 6-UP AND DOWN 7-UP, DOWN, AND LEFT 8-RIGHT 9-LEFT AND RIGHT A-DOWN AND RIGHT B-LEFT, RIGHT, AND DOWN - not supported C-UP and Right D-LEFT, RIGHT, AND UP - not supported E-UP, DOWN, AND RIGHT - not supported F-Activates Triplets (1/12 steps)
6 PANEL (SOLO) DIAGONALS *DIAGONALS ARE PLACED ON PLAYER 2 SIDE*: 1-diag. up left 4-diag. up right 5-both diags
A few things to remember about step data:
1. Singles' edits with have duplicate data for player 1 and player 2 sides.
2. Triplets are activated with "F" then the next 3 step following the F are the 1/12 notes. Triplets last for only 1/4 bar.
3. As stated above 7, B, D, & E are not supported step types. They may show up in editing programs but they will not be displayed as 3 arrows or at all when you play them in the arcade or at home.
4. Yes it is possible to have 3 or 4 arrows displayed at once with solo edits. 1 or 2 of the Arrows are the diagonals and 1 or 2 are the standard 4 directions (UDLR).
-----
[3.C - STEP LIMITATIONS]
Here's a list of step combinations DDR machines do not like and how they will display them if you try.
Singles: *7, B, D, E: I believe these don't show up at all or show up as LR arrows.
Doubles: *7, B, D, E: I believe these don't show up at all or show up as LR arrows.
*L on P1 Side and any arrow on P2 side: The machine doesn't wasn't you tearing any groin muscles that shouldn't be tearing so it displays a nice set of 2 center arrows (R on P1 Side, L on P2 Side)
*R on P2 Side and any arrow on P1 Side: Same as above, displays two center arrows(R on P1 Side, L on P2 Side)
*U on both sides: two center arrows
*D on both sides: two center arrows
*U on one side and D on the other: two center arrows
*2 arrows on one side and any arrows on the other side: Basically any attempt at displaying more than 2 arrows on one line will not work and I believe only player 1's side will be displayed from my experience.
6 Panel: *7, B, D, E: I believe these don't show up at all or show up as LR arrows.
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | SECTION 4 - BASIC Edit Hacking Method | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+
[4.A - Editing on the PSX then changing the Song ID]
This is done on a home version of DDR that allows editing.
Simply find a song on the home version that you are using that is larger or the same size as the song you're making an edit for, and make your edit using that song.
I usually refer to a step chart to read the rhythms in a song. Maniac singles or doubles step charts work the best because they have the most steps in them to look at and work from.
When you're done, save your edit onto a memory card then put it on your computer using your DexDrive or whatever device you have.
All you'll need to do now is change the song ID and machine code if it's different then the song you're making the edit for. Save the changes and put the result back on your memory card in place of the original. (It's a good idea to keep a backup of the original edit just in case, but that's your call.)
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | SECTION 5 - ADVANCED EDIT HACKING | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+
[5.A - FREEZE ARROWS]
Like I said before the starting and ending hex addresses will be different depending on which song your making an edit for. For our example, our freeze arrows begin at 0710 and end at 0B0F.
Basically to figure out where your freeze arrows begins you have to know how many bars you song lasts. We found this out earlier in the FAQ for our song, whose MDAT say it lasts for 65. So seeing as how every line equals 1 bar, simply count down from 0310 the length of your song (65 in this case) and you'll end up at 0700. So the next line is where your freezes start, or 0710 in this case. Freeze data is treated exactly like normal step data except there's a few rules you can bend. Here what you can get away with.
-----
[5.B - Freeze Arrow Limitations]
Steps that were not allowed before can become freezes if they are separated by 1/8 of a bar. The only thing that will not work with freezes is displaying 3 arrows at once.
A freeze arrow must cover an 8th of a measure before it will show up properly on a DDRMAX/2 arcade machine. A 16th-Freeze is possible in DDRMAX USA at home, but for some reason this does not work in the arcade.
A freeze cannot be placed with triplets.
All freeze arrows must begin at a regular arrow to work.
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | SECTION 6 - DDREDITMAX | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+
[6.A - About The Program]
This section will cover the best editing program out there, DDREDITMAX. What makes this editor great. First off it supports freeze arrows. It has all the song ID's for the MAX2 songs. Also it generates pretty spiffy step charts. It has a function to use DDR OST's to play music to sync the steps to just like the DDR home version editors. Finally the save function works, which definitely makes this editor stand out.
System Requirements: -16MB RAM (64MB+ Recommended) -Windows 95/98/NT4/2000/XP -Pentium 266MHZ -Visual Basic 6 Runtime (I think this iis iincluded in the file, if not you can get it from Microsoft.com) -Media Player 6 or higher (for playing mussic files to sync steps to)
-----
[6.B - Installation]
1. After Downloading DDREDITMAX uncompress the archive to you hard drive.
2. Run OCXreg.bat (This will copy the system files for you and register the necessary drivers)
BTW if for some reason your archive is missing OCXreg.bat (I had this happen one time I DL'd the program.) simply copy and paste the batch file below...
---Start OCXreg.bat--- @echo off echo Choose Operating System echo. echo 1 ... Windows95/98/Me echo 2 ... WindowsNT/2000/XP echo 3 ... Exit / Cancel echo.
CHOICE /C:123 IF ERRORLEVEL 3 GOTO EXIT IF ERRORLEVEL 2 GOTO WINNT IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO WIN9X
:WINNT echo OCX,DLL Copying System Files COPY .\*.OCX %SystemRoot%\System32 COPY .\*.DLL %SystemRoot%\System32 REGOCX32 %SystemRoot%\System32\HKLink.ocx REGOCX32 %SystemRoot%\System32\ComDlg32.ocx REGOCX32 %SystemRoot%\System32\MSCOMCTL.OCX REGOCX32 %SystemRoot%\System32\EventEx.ocx GOTO EXIT
---End OCXreg.bat
3. Run DDREDIT.EXE and away you go.

[6.C - The Main Editing screen/ Basic usage]
On the main screen you'll see your editing space on the right side. Above that will be the menu bar and the song selection bar. To the left of the editing section will be your measure / bar count, a toggle for edit style (single, couple, and double), difficulty settings, edit name box and music preview button. I've also taken the liberty to translate/decode all the buttons for you. It looks something like this: (hurray for horrible ASCII)

Basic Usage:
When you start off you'll have a blank window for editing. The default play type is Single but you can check the box of which type you'd like make. You can name the edit by entering a name in the EDIT name box (8 characters MAX). Below the edit box is your Arcade Code checkboxes. Simply check the box which your song belongs to (most of the time it will be the first home version mix the song falls on, I.E. On The Jazz is a DDRMAX song but it first appeared on DDR 5th for the PS1 so it has a 5th mix arcade code. Same with DDR Extreme songs that appear on the MAX2 home version, they will have the MAX2 code not DDR EXTREME).
Here's some of the basic controls:
Left Mouse Button: Place Arrow Right Mouse Button: Delete Arrow CTRL + Left Mouse Button: Place Freeze Arrow CTRL + Right Mouse Button: Delete Freeze Arrow SHIFT + Left Mouse Button: Place Triplet SHIFT + Right Mouse Button: Delete Triplet

[6.E - Important things to remember]
There are few Bugs/concerns with the program that you should be aware of.
1. The program always saves edits with the DDRMAX, DDRMAX2, or DDR EXTREME arcade code (depending on which box is checked on the edit screen). If you are using a song not originating from those mixes, to avoid much stressing over why your edit steps aren't being recognized by the machine, just download DDREDIT (same makers, earlier program meant for 5th mix and below). It follows the same layout, but actually works for older songs without any hex editing needed. God knows why the makers didn't put that into DDREDITMAX, but let the song list remain.
2. Also make sure you watch when you save after starting a new edit after opening an edit. I've accidentally saved over edits I've made before by mistake a few times
3. There have been some issues with using DDREDITMAX, in that sometimes a save file, when opened, gives an error like "DDR2nd??????". Somewhere along the line, the save's header has been corrupted. Don't fret, though! What you can do is this: Set up a new step file, with the song, the label, difficulty, etc. Then, open up that base file in a hex editor. Copy everything from the top line to the Dance Dance Revolution line, and paste it *over* your old "corrupted" save. Save your newly repaired file. It should work now.
That's all and happy editing.
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | SECTION 7 - KONAMIX EDITS: Where they went wrong... | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+
[7.A - The let down...]
Everybody was excited when konamix came out because of the new edit function that was added. Problem is like the rest of the game it was hurried and so became extremely buggy.
Actually it's not too surprising seeing as how konamix is really a hacked version of 4th mix much like extra mix but worse.
Below is a copy of an AM-3p (303 BASS MIX) Doubles file. Take a quick look as I explain what went wrong....

[7.B - The Problem]
The main problem that is causing almost all the edit not to work is the Machine code (02B0-02B1). If you remember back to the beginning of the FAQ you'll know that's the 4th Mix interface machine code used in SOLO BASS, SOLO 2000, 4TH, 4th+, and extra mix. Since this game is a hacked version of 4th they either A. Couldn't change the code to be different for different songs, or B. Overlooked and forgot to change it. Either way that would eliminate any song from anything other then the versions mentioned above from working or about 90% of the songs. Now as far as I'm aware there is nothing like a country lockout or code similar to something like that. It wouldn't make sense because even if that were true since this is a hacked 4th mix which was a Japanese game it would work anyways.
-----
[7.C - Phantom Steps]
Now as far as the phantom steps that appear in drop out edits my guess would be bad coding. Here's a before and after of the end of a dropout save from KONAMIX. The before is after the initial save. The after is after reopening the edit to see all the phantom steps then re-saving.

As you can see it's KONAMIX that is messing up how they're displayed because both files are identical. So even though it looks as if your edit is messed up those extra steps aren't really there.

[7.D - Converting USA edits to work with arcade]
Pick a song in DDRMAX USA or DDR Konamix that is also in the arcade, eg. on DDR MAX 2. For the purposes of this guide, I'll use Ecstasy as an example. Create your edit and save it with the name you want (ex: VARIETY1), then use the Library Manager to "Output" (export) the edit file outside of the Edit Library. This saves the edit as a PS1-compatible file. NOTE: You *CAN* use Freeze-Arrows in your edit, even if the song is from a mix that didn't originally support them.
If you're doing an edit via DDRMAX USA, reboot your PS2 and eject the CD so you can get into the browser. Insert your PS1 memory card into the spare slot and make sure you have one slot (8 KB) free. Copy the newly-saved DDRMAX edit file to your PS1 card. Verify that it's there on your card - it should read "DDRMAX // EDIT (...) VARIETY1". It won't have a "last saved/updated" timestamp on it if you look at its details in the browser. (Konamix edits are automatically saved on the PS1 card.)
Now, insert the PS1 card into the DexDrive and use PSXGameEdit to read the contents of the card. I recommend saving a full image of the card before continuing. Your new edit should show up in PSXGameEdit in one of the slots, with the title "DDRMAX EDIT (...) VARIETY1 (...) US". Underneath the animated icon for this save, the "P. Code" (Product Code) will read "SLUS-01446", and the "G.ID" below that will read "VARIETY1".
Select this edit and then go "File >> Save Single Game Save", and give the resulting file a name of your choice with the extension .mcs (ex: VARIETY1.mcs). Then CLOSE PSXGameEdit to avoid any problems with "File In Use" or "Invalid File Type" error messages.
Now, here comes the fun part.
Open up the VARIETY1.mcs file in your hex editor (I'm using XVI32). If necessary, resize the window so each row is 16 bytes long (eg. 0000-000F, 0010-001F, etc.). You should see something like this file: http://www.descent2.com/dorsola/games/ddredit01.gif
Download a copy of this file (if you haven't already): http://www.descent2.com/dorsola/games/dwi/ddreditbase.mcs
and open it up in a separate hex editor (or window if your hex editor supports multiple windows). Select the entire contents of this file and copy it to the clipboard (either as a text string or a hex string), then OVERWRITE the data in your edit file with this block you just copied, starting at address 0000. This replaces the product code, the comments area, and the PSX icon, but does not affect the edit data itself.
Then, go back to the top of the file and, at address 0016, enter the name of your edit, up to 8 characters. You can also enter this at 00B2, but it isn't necessary.
At this point, save your modified edit file, preferably with a different name (VARIETY1_converted.mcs) so you have a backup of the original. Then open PSXGameEdit, open your full memory card image or redownload it from the DexDrive, and go "File >> Open Single Game Save" and select your newly saved file (VARIETY1_converted.mcs). This will load the modified Edit file into a spare slot on the card. It should show up with the same name, but the new Product ID code, and the region should now read "JP" instead of "US". Then go "Memcard >> Write MC Quick" or "Write MC Full" to write the new info to your PS1 card.
Comments: This method has worked for me with edits for three different songs now. I cannot explain WHY it works - it doesn't look like it should work, but it does. There is a side-effect that I haven't solved yet, however:
Your edit will show up in the PS2 browser as a file with no title or game information. It will just be a floating icon (if you use my edit-base, the icon will be the one created by DDREditMAX) that's 8K in size. I recommend using the DexDrive to manage your edit files once you've converted them. You also cannot read the newly saved edit file with either DDRMAX USA or DDR Konamix. I don't know if it'll be readable by a Japanese version of DDR.
--- Another option would be to use thiss prrogram: http://www.lvcm.com/taiki/convert.zip created by LV Taiki. It's a command line based edit converter. I haven't tested it but it supposed to work quite well.
